AT HOME TOY UPDATE

We tried to roll back the at-home toys influx just a few weeks ago to make it work for both the kids and our environment.  However, since the at-home toys are still a struggle, we need to set some more strict guidelines:

Older non-nappers:  They may bring in a BOOK for quiet time.  NO other toys are allowed now.  The toys are continuing to overfill cubbies/backpacks and disrupt this quiet independent time as the at-home toys lend themselves to drawing a crowd of children together. 

Napping children guideline remains the same: one quiet, small snuggly toy is ok.  Most have a WF snuggly already on their cot so it is unnecessary. 

****Because our cubbies are small, we would strongly prefer that children do not bring in backpacks as they crowd out the other necessities that are big  like coats & snow pants.  If a backpack is necessary, please make it a small preschool child size.  WE DO STOCK RECYCLED PLASTIC BAGS IN THE TOP CUBBY RIGHT BY THE SIGN-IN SHEETS.  The bags work really well to take home itemsSmile 

****If your child has snow pants that stay at WF, there is a bin in the front that you can use to store them rather than your cubby.
